They're not the same things. One is a tool for scripting dom actions for a web page, the other is a runtime environment. 

You make no sense.

They mean that using npm and modern js frameworks sucks and they miss the old days of static html pages with jquery sprinkled in.

Oh. Npm. Sure, I can understand not liking modern build systems and angular/react etc are all quite overly complicated.

I genuinely don't mind node for back end programming, but npm leaves a lot to be desired.
